The 90-Day Plan: DAY 27

DAY 27
 

Power plants across the country use 136 Billion gallons of freshwater everyday; compare that to 4 Billion gallons for home use.  Saving energy ultimately saves water; encourage your family to invest in ENERGY STAR appliances before their next purchase. 
 

Challenge:   Why is desalination not currently cost-effective for most parts of the world?  What is water-reclamation?  By 2013, thirty-six states are anticipating water shortages at either the local, regional, or statewide level; is your state on the list?
